EGPC crude oil production reaches 57,000 bbl/d for the first time

The EGPC’s production of crude oil reached 57,000 bbl/d for the first time in its history, the company said in a geological report picked up by Al Masry Al Youm on Friday. The boost came on the back of production from new discoveries. The EGPC is expanding crude exploration efforts in a bid to bring that number up to 60,000 bbl/d.
